Education

Education institutions from colleges and universities to K-12 schools, rely on Advantidge to provide the necessary resources for producing multipurpose Photo IDs for their students and faculty. ID Badge Printing Systems have become a neccessity for educational institutions that are looking for a higher level of security on campus.

Security lapses on school campuses are a real threat and a growing problem in today’s world. Improve security at your school by updating the visitor sign-in process, which often fails to provide sufficient visitor identity information, and replace it with an automated ID card scanning solution. Ensure that along with the visitor’s name, date and time of entry, you also have their address, drivers license number and basic physical description in your system. With a drivers license scanner added to your school security system software you can do just that. Additionally, watch list integration can check each visitor against a national or internal database to make it less likely that known high-risk and dangerous persons gain entry to your facilities.

Is your school using antiquated paper attendance tracking and manual visitor log books? In addition to increasing safety, modern attendance tracking softwares can save time and money for teachers and schools alike. Using the existing student and staff ID cards on use on your campus, upgrade your school tracking system by incorporating magnetic stripe, barcode reader or proximity smart card technologies. Attendance tracking softwares increase accuracy with immediate transmission to a central location, offering the ability to quickly compile attendance data from which you can learn if certain classes routinely struggle with attendance problems, and which students if any, are frequently tardy to class or absent. The data can be as individualized or campus-wide as you’d like, so you can learn about developing or potential problems before it’s too late! Depending on your school’s policy you can also automatically notify parents, print tardy notices and issue warnings.

Advantidge offers a full range of machine-readable Proximity Cards that can synchronize Student IDs with automated systems in school libraries, dorms, cafeterias and vending areas. By simply swiping a Magnetic Stripe ID card, students can make cashless purchases for food or laundry machine use, and access all institution facilities in a manner that maintains a high level of security.Eco-Friendly Solutions
